    Help

    We are mainly looking for help at the reception of our hotel, and guiding tourists on hikes. Being very responsible, kind and attentive in hotel service, having knowledge of astronomy and with horses is very appreciated. If you are motivated and want to learn, we will train you to work with us in the observatory (open from March 15th to November 30th), help in the gardens and a greenhouse for vegetables. We require people who are willing to work in this field as well. They will be asked to work as a hiking guide. You must speak intermediate level Spanish, which is very important for us.
    We provide volunteers with accommodation during their stay with us and access to the kitchen so that they can prepare their own meals. We provide them with food to cook during the volunteer period, and a private room.
    In the case of volunteers interested in receiving a remuneration, do not hesitate to contact Emmanuel for an evaluation, but if possible, as to whether the volunteer has the responsibility to carry out a professional and responsible job.
